Ask HN: Please help me curate datasets on Africa by sharing some sources

Over the next 3 months I want to create a portal for data on the African continent. Many a times, I hear people saying their isn't enough data on Africa or it is not easily available so I have tasked myself in aggregating as many datasets and sources as I can. So if you can, please share a link or two in the comments to some datasets on Africa that you know. Sanitized or not, it doesn't matter.
